New Features ✨

Growth Scores in Repurpose Studio

Easily pick out the best clips in Repurpose Studio with the help of Growth Scores. We analyze each suggested clip based on its hook, coherence, and subject matter, then give it an overall score so you can identify clips with the highest potential for growing your audience. Hover on the score to read more about how we calculated that number.

Intro Hooks in Repurpose Studio

Instantly level up how attention-grabbing your clips are with the new intro hook options in Repurpose Studio. In a single click, you can add an AI voiceover intro or just a title card to the first few seconds of your video which will help hint at what the video is about and keep people watching for longer.

Bug Fixes & Improvements 🛠

Updated resize and Speaker Focus flow – We simplified the Resize Canvas flow so it's easier to change the aspect ratio of your project and get the settings just right. Speaker Focus also now has its own entry point and dedicated flow that is separate from Resize.

Remove silences easily using Trim with Transcript – You can now remove sections of silence from your videos just by deleting those parts in the Transcript tab. You'll go from raw footage to snappy, well-paced clips in no time.
